Howdy! Hope everyone had a great weekend. Yes, mine was fabulous! Thanks for asking! I went out for dinner and drinks with my new work peeps on Friday night (when I wore this outfit), then did some shopping on Saturday, followed by a museum date on Sunday. Monday was spent chilling at home in a super sexy outfit consisting of gray sweatpants and a law school t-shirt. Forgot to take photos of that one. Sorry. But this one’s pretty cute, right? I’m so glad I got this jacket. I already have like 3 more outfits dreamed up with this baby, so you better get used to seeing it.

P.S. Since you all were hopefully too busy enjoying your long weekend to keep up with your favorite blog, here’s what you missed:

Friday’s Post: Hi. I’m New Here.

Monday’s Post: Vroom Vroom

Indianapolis is a pretty special place to be on the Sunday before Memorial Day. Every year tens of thousands of people come here to see the Greatest Spectacle in Racing. It’s 200 laps totaling 500 miles, taken at speeds well over 150mph.

The drivers come from all over the world to participate in one of the most prestigious events on the IndyCar calendar. And you can’t blame them because the winner gets a pretty sweet cash prize, plus a free jug of milk. This year, Tony Kanaan from Brazil won the race. It was his 12th time in the race but his first win. Good job Tony!

So obviously, you can guess where I was yesterday…

…I was at the Indiana State Museum to see the Eternal James Dean exhibition.

What, you think I want to stand in line for hours, then cram into the bleachers with a bunch of drunk people and watch cars drive around in circles? Puh-lease.

So I decided to go with an equally Hoosier activity, but more classy. In case you were not aware, James Dean hails from Indiana. Incidentally, I learned from the exhibition that James was a big fan of the Indy 500 and car racing. Unfortunately, his passion for driving didn’t turn out too well, but we won’t dwell on that. Instead, how about this fun fact: James had some really random hobbies like conga-drumming and bull fighting.

Also, he was super hot. Honestly, I don’t know why you would want to look at pictures of me right now when you could go watch Rebel Without a Cause instead, but just in case, here’s what I wore. You can also see a couple more photos on Instagram.
